Complex process.
International cannabis is one of the most highly regulated agricultural and pharmaceutical-adjacent supply environments in the world.
Getting the product right is only the beginning. Every international cannabis shipment requires careful coordination between the exporter, importer, regulators, laboratories, logistics providers, and other authorized participants.
Legacy has developed practical experience navigating this process and works closely with our international partners to coordinate the requirements applicable to each transaction. Our export coordination may include:
Canadian Export Requirements
Coordination of applicable Health Canada export permit applications, product information and shipment requirements.
Importer Documentation
Working with the licensed importer to align Canadian export documentation with applicable destination-market import authorizations.
Lot & Quantity Coordination
Ensuring cultivars, lots and shipment quantities are appropriately aligned across applicable permits and commercial documentation.
Commercial Documentation
Preparation and coordination of applicable invoices, manifests, product information and shipment documentation.
Shipment Preparation
Coordinating product, packaging, labels and supporting documentation in preparation for international transportation.
The importer remains responsible for obtaining and maintaining the authorizations required within its jurisdiction, while Legacy manages the applicable Canadian export requirements and works collaboratively to ensure both sides of the transaction are aligned.
International cannabis requires precision. We treat the details accordingly.
Testing, documentation & logistics
From our facility to your market.
A successful international cannabis shipment depends on more than cultivation and regulatory approvals.
The product, testing, documentation and physical shipment all need to tell the same story. Legacy coordinates the operational components required to prepare qualifying cannabis for international transportation and works with customers and service providers to address applicable destination-market requirements.
Testing & COAs
Lot-specific analytical testing and Certificates of Analysis provide buyers with documented product information and support applicable commercial and regulatory requirements.
Destination Market Requirements
Where additional testing or product preparation is required for a particular market or customer, our team works to identify and coordinate those requirements before shipment.
Product & Lot Documentation
Product identity, lot information, quantities and supporting documentation are coordinated across the commercial and export process.
Manifest & Label Coordination
Shipment manifests, labels and associated documentation are prepared to align with applicable permits and transportation requirements.
International Freight
Legacy can coordinate specialized international transportation with logistics providers experienced in handling regulated products.
Cargo Insurance
Where applicable, international shipments can be insured in accordance with the agreed commercial and shipping arrangements.
Shipment Coordination
Our team remains engaged across the process—from product preparation and carrier coordination through export and arrival in the destination market.
Verify. Document. Coordinate. Execute. International cannabis logistics leaves little room for assumptions.
